What is Bitcoin? that seems like a simple question until you start looking for an answer on the web.

For example, if you check Wikipedia, you’ll get the following confusing answer.

“Bitcoin is adecentralized digital currency that can be transferred on thepeer-to-peer bitcoin network.
Bitcoin transactions are verified bynetwork nodes throughcryptography and recorded on a publicdistributed ledger called ablockchain.”

One of the main reasons why it is not easy to define bitcoin is that Bitcoin lives at the intersection of multiple technologies, such as

Cryptography,
Economics,
Computer Science,
Finance,
Hardware Engineering,
Networking,
Politics

This course aims to help you become someone who understands blockchain and uses bitcoin with confidence.

After this course, you’ll be able to master the following tasks:

How to buy bitcoin
What is a bitcoin wallet, and how to use it
Understand core concepts of bitcoin, such as Keys, Addresses, Wallets, and Transactions
What is an Unspent Transaction Output or UTXO
We will not learn how to trade bitcoin or any other cryptocurrency.

At first, we will get a short introduction to blockchain technology, then learn the difference between a centralized and decentralized network.

We will then go to the crypto exchange to buy some bitcoin used in the course.
After acquiring some bitcoin, we learn how to secure access to those coins using a bitcoin wallet,
And it is here that we learn about public key cryptography.

Toward the end of the course, we will learn how to trace bitcoin transactions using publicly available tools.
